Credit Unions are rated as the most highly regarded organisations in Ireland for their role in providing trusted financial services to local communities.

That is according to a reputation study by The Reputations Agency. The survey measures the level of trust, respect, admiration and esteem the public has for 100 of the largest, most familiar, and most important organisations in Ireland, along with 25 other reputation indicators.

Charles Murphy, President of the Irish League of Credit Unions said credit unoins are a cornerstone of local communities. “The trust that members place in their local credit union has been earned, and enhanced, by consistent actions that demonstrate a caring, understanding, people-focused approach.

“Credit union personnel take time to get to know their members and to understand their needs,” he said. “Decisions are made at local level, in the best interest of the members of the credit union. Above all else, people feel valued and respected”.

According to the study, this year’s average reputation Pulse score was 66.0 compared to 64.4 in 2017, highlighting an increase in trust and confidence for organisations amongst the public. The study is based on the perceptions of 7,094 members of the public who completed the survey between January 5 and March 5, 2018

The number of organisations studied increased from 50 organisations in 2017 to 100 organisations in 2018. New organisations studied include Communicorp, Samsung, Energia, EirGrid and Gas Networks Ireland and the Olympic Council of Ireland. Public bodies such as An Garda Siochána, the Central Bank of Ireland, and HSE were also included.
